TRUSTEE ANNUAL REPORT
We lost two trustees during our financial year March 2023 to 31 March 2024 where one of them in the name of Edward Mongha Tanganika steps down because of his new pay Job. He could no longer combined both activities when the other trustee, NSHOMBO MALENDE JOHN steps down as a volunteer for ADP African Development Project following his new Career.
We struggle to raise any money or apply for Funding. We put more effort to get a new Trustee in place and a group of volunteers. Last October 2024, we managed to recruit a new Trustee in the name of MUKILE KASONGO JUNIOR to be able to reorganise the charity and recruit a new group of volunteers to fulfil our weekly Outreach to the community activity to distribute packs of Condoms to people in the Bars and Barbershops.
We are still receiving high call of B-Condoms specially by people going on Holiday.
The African Community in Leicester City still ignoring the existence of PrEP taken before sex can protect you against the HIV.
PrEP has a new hope for reducing the number of HIV positive in the UK, but the Awareness need to be raised. The uprising of social media, sex become easy to fix with the dating Channels and contribute to the rise of sexual activity with a casual people.
The Sexual Clinic in Leicester (LHS) is concerned for not seeing any reductions in Sexual infections diagnosed.
We are now working together again to tackle the issue and getting more people on test by increasing our testing capacity to reach more undiagnosed people and refer them to the Clinic.
Also campaigning for Condoms to be used to avoid unnecessary early pregnancy.
The Sexual activities has always been there as a part of human life but there is a need of educating people and changing their behaviours to make sure that everyone is doing it safely specially the Key population which are defined as the group who, because of specific high risk behaviours, are at greater risk of sexual infection, included men who have a sex with a men, injecting drugs users, people in prison and sex workers.
Teaching young people how to protect themselves Sexually to avoid infections and early pregnancy is our Target to reduce the global toll of STIs. This will be beneficiary for people around the world, our NHS, Leicester Hospital and Public Health in England. The most of these STIs are: Gonorrhoea, Trachomatous infection, Syphilis, Genitaluim, Pallidum infection, vaginalis infection and Chlamydia. STIs has a profound impact on health; if untreated, they can lead to the serious consequences including neurological and cardiovascular disease, infertility, ectopic pregnancy and increasing risk of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). They are also associated with STIGMA, Domestic violence, and affect quality of life. Today there is a rapid increasing antimicrobial resistance which allowing a growing threat for untreatable Gonorrhoea.
TO DAY DEVELOPMENT
-
To focus on Crossing Border
-
Every Year during the summertime, a lot of people are going around the world for holiday.
The Africans in the Uk are not in exception. Mostly they are going back to their homeland same as the Caribbeans for diverse reasons, but Sex activities are also involved where there is not enough provision of HIV PREVENTION MATERIALS, therefore the risk of acquiring HIV for those are going very active is high. In 2022- 2023, we served around 1700 Condoms to people who are travelling to Africa from Leicester City.
-
To focus on our SALIVA SELF HIV TESTING ORAQUICK To Reach more undiagnosed people.
-
To Focus on PrEP Revolution
-
PrEP (Pre- Exposure Prophylaxis) for HIV becomes a fundamental part of worldwide effort for HIV PREVENTION.
Much can be done now as NHS adopted.
PrEP Tablets is a drug preventing people to acquire HIV infections. We need to make sure that our Leicester community knows about it.
Our Sector is
Suffering for Funding. There is a reduce number of Funders in the United- Kingdom but we are still got the Hope to do our Job.
We have diverse partner Organisations we work with like:
-
Leicester Sexual Health Clinic
-
Trade Sexual Health
-

-
AFRO- INNOVATION
-
B- INSPIRED
-

-
E-SOLUTIONS
CHALLENGES
-
Young Female Africans Early Pregnancy Increased
-
Funding is getting hard for Sexual Health Prevention
-
No stock on Condoms
-
STIGMA Still high.
Every weekend, we do activity with African Business in Leicester city like Barber shop, Bar and Restaurant by posting Posters on the wall, in the toilet and leaflet to be pick it up at the Bar. We also try to engage discussion regarding different topic on Sexual Health to transmit knowledge. We do Event and Network meetings to raise awareness on
Sexual Health Prevention.
The life saving medicine in this area has yet to reach the LARGE BAME Community that’s why we need to constantly keep promoting the key element of Sexual Health Prevention. This means that the HIV Pandemic
and other sexual infectious disease are not ready to go away and our African Community always don’t have somebody to stand for them.

in 24 hours to the Leicester Royal infirmary to on PEP for 72 hours treatments.
